The Waterfall
















Brett Kenzie and I all went for a hike today to the White Tank Mountains. It is a really easy hike if you can even call it hiking. The path is paved for most of the way. Brett carried Makenzie in on of those baby back packs and enjoyed most of the hike. It was pretty cold so we bundled her up as you can see in the pictures. Anyway it was still really fun and we got to see the waterfall. That was awesome! It is probably the only place in the valley that has a real waterfall. (I don't know for sure though) It only has a waterfall after there has been a lot of rain and everyone in AZ knows that we just got a TON of rain the past few day so there was plenty of water to see. In order to see the actual waterfall though we had to take our shoes and socks off and walk thought the freezing cold water, but it was worth it. I totally recommend anyone in AZ to go see it soon cause its awesome and you can take little kids cause the hike is not difficult although getting all the way to the waterfall might be. There is also a playgroud near the parking lot for little kids as well. The hike is 2 mile to the waterfall and back, and its totally worth it so every one should go before the waterfall disapears :)

Kenzie's First Trip to Utah!





























At the beginnning of November Brett Kenzie and my family and I went to Cedar City Utah to visit my sister Brittney and watch her play volleyball. She did great and they won their game! While we were up there we went to the near by mountains and there was a little bit of snow up there. We went to a park that had a ramada and a fire pit. We built a fire and roasted marsh mellows. It was fun and really cold. I got to use the blanket that I made for Kenzie. I was excited about that. I don't know if I will ever get to use it again if it doesn't start getting colder down here in Arizona.

Family Pictures






















Sincemy sister Brittney was in town for Thanksgiving we decided to go to the park and take a few pics with our cameras. I found this pretty waterfall and thought it was a great spot for pics. We probably looked kind nerdy cause we just used the timer on the camera so we would push the button and then run and pose with the rest of the family. It worked out pretty well, the olny problem was there was duck poop all over the grass and it smell really bad!

Rice Cereal











So we decided to see if Makenzie would like rice cereal last week. Turns out she loves it! I was kind of afraid that she wouldn't be able to get the hang of cause she is a little young but nope she is a natural. No doubt she got that trait from her father :) She kept putting her hands in her mouth and sucking the cereal off of them, then she would smear the cereal all over her face it was pretty funny.

Doing The Laundry







I let the laundry stack up all week long until I had a huge pile but Kenzie helped me fold it!

Halloween Decorations







Last year around Halloween time I drew some pictures of cute Halloween creatures and this year I decided to paint them on wood. It was a lot harder than I had thought but I had fun doing it. Just in case you can't tell the first one is Frankinstein secnd is a ghost and the last is a mummy.

Blessing Dress
















On October 11 Brett blessed Kenzie in church. It was very nice execpt that she screamed histerically throughout the entire thing! Once the prayer was over though she was okay. But she looked so cute regardless so I finally got some pictures of her and wanted to post them. She didn't especially like the dress though, it is not the most comfortable thing but she stayed calm for about 5 or 10 minutes while I forced her to be my baby model. :)
